The 43-year-old actor, who has been a part of films like " "X-Men," "Enchanted," and "The Notebook," said that director Steven Soderbergh offered him a role in the Channing Tatum-starring male strippers movie, but he was hesitant and ultimately passed on the part, reported Entertainment Weekly.
"Soderbergh is one of my favorites. But I didn't know if I trusted myself to be good enough in this to not have my two dozen lines end up on the editing-room floor. I'd look like a naked extra in this movie," Marsden said.
"It's perfect the way it worked out, but that's one of the only ones I'm like, Hmm. I didn't know it was gonna be the massive success that it was," he said.
